LICENSE APPLICATION.
NEW WARD CHANGES CONDITION
Heretofore It Was Necessary to Get
( he Signatures of a Majority of
Freeholders Now Just Thirty are
Necessary Benefits Liquor Men.
The changing of the ward districts
In Norfolk hns brought n change In
the number of signatures which must
Lo attached to each petition for a sa
loon liquor license or a petition for
druggist's permit to sell liquors. Ac
cording to the former regulations , It
was required that each applicant mnst
secure a majority of'tho signatures of
nil freeholders living In his ward. In
the new wards , It will ho necessary
to get Just thirty names each , re
gardless of the numher of freeholders.
The law reads that in case there
nro sixty or more freeholders In each
ward , it will he necessary to get the
names of thirty of them on each ap
plication ; while In case there are less
than sixty freeholders In each ward ,
It Is necessary to get a majority of
all freeholders living In the ward. In
the former wards , there were loss
than sixty in those districts which
contain saloons and the result was
that more than half of all freeholders
had to sign petitions. In the new
wards there.are over sixty in each
ward and It Is necessary to get hut
thirty altogether on each petition.
With so many more freeholders in
each ward as they now stand , the
change Is said to have worked 'a hen-
eflt to the saloonmen In this regard ,
as It Is easier for them to get thirty
out of a large number than half of a
small number of voters to sign their
petitions.
EAGLE SIE2ED A LITTLE CHILD.
Remarkable Attack of a Huge Bird on
a Party of School Youngsters.
Long Prairie , Minn. , March 10.
Last evening while a number of chil
dren were going home from school a
huge eagle swooped down upon them
In the street , near the roller mill ,
slezed Lou Reamer's little girl , aged
5 years , and attempted to carry her
away. The bird fastened its talons in
the child's shoulder and dress shirt
and lifted her several feet from the
ground , when Frank Blair's son and
other boys sprang to the girl's assist
ance and , grasping her clothing , pre
vented the bird from carrying her
away. The eagle then soared off.
When young Blair siezed the child
the bird with its wings struck him a
blow on the side of the head and
knocked him down. The side of the
boy's face Is black and blue.
Before the eagle made the attack
the boys saw it sailing overhead about
fifty feet above the ground. Sudden
ly the bird closed its wings and
dropped to the earth. The children
attempted to flee. . As soon as the
bird siezed the little girl she screamed
and the boys courageously turned back
<
to rescue her.
The attack was within three blocks
of the village school , and in the thick
ly settled part of town.

A heavy snow , which began falling
yesterday , continued today over north
ern Nebraska and there are little
signs of a change in the present con
dition. The wind this morning v-ns
from the east , shifting tn southeast.
A couple of inches of snon had 'nil on"
prior to this morning. The weather
has not been extremely co'o. ' however ,
and there is little suffering caused by
the snowfall. From a summerlike
week preceding , the thirteenth of
March has dawned in a decided
change , however , and It will not be a
surprise if dozens of colds are devel
oped.
oped.March
March has now contributed .wo an-1
one-half Inches oJ snow to the mois
ture that had already fallen' during
the winter , and with the frost almost
entirely removed from the ground the
bulk of this fall will soak into the
ground when the weather warms and
put the soil In good condition for the
beginning of spring work. It Is prob
able that there will be a greater pre
cipitation before the weather clears.
During the fine weather the latter
part of February and the early part
of March there was some wheat sown
and this snow will be the proper thing
to aid in its germination.

FIRE BURNS SLOWLY IN COLD
STORAGE WRECKAGE.
FIREMAN AUG. GRAUL EXPLAINS
Lack of Water Pressure Not Due tea
a Lack of Force at the Pumping
Station Stand Pipe Was Kept Full
During the Fire.
The ruins of the Davenport cold
storage are still smoking and steamIng -
Ing In places and the prospects lire
Hint It will continue to smoulder for
perhaps a week. The heat of the lire
beneath Is gradually melting the Ire
which IH mixed up with the wreckage ,
and the water dripping from thin gen
erates a cloud of Hteain. The fall of
snow over the ruliiH him aided In this
and has likewise served to remove
some of the danger from surrounding
properly so that since Saturday night
the hose companies have boon with
drawn nnd no additional alarm bus
been necessary to recall the firemen.
Some town boys were endangering
themselves In gelling at a few barrels
of apples that were uncovered In ( lie
basement , but have been warned that
It is dangerous , because ( he wreckage
Is in danger of being undermined hv
the smouldering lire at any Instant
and might topple into the basment
and crush them.
Stand Pipe Was Full.
Fireman August Clrnnl of the water
works pumping station claims a clear
ance for the portion of the water
works system over which ho presides
when the charge is made that tht-ie
was a lack of pressure at the cold
storage fire. At noon , the flrou'nn
said , there was a full stnndplpo as in
dicated by the pressure guago , anil
as soon as the alarm was turned In
the engines were started and the
standplpe kept full throughout. When
complaint of lack of pressure was
made one of the councilman went to
the pumping station and found things
as asserted by the fireman , the pres
sure gunge indicating all the force
possible to be put forth , and citation
is likewise made to R. Blatt , who has
a pressure guage at his pop factory ,
which Indicated a full amount of
pressure.
Fireman Graul thinks it possible
that a lack of pressure was to he ac
counted for by the fact that the pipe
line on Madison avenue Is but a four-
Inch main and this with tliT''O lines
of hose attached could not be expect
ed to throw water to the extreme
height. lie accounts for the thick
muddy water by the fact that there
is aload end where the hose was at
tached and all the accumulated set
tlings were forced out through the
nozzles.

KIRKMAN AND MRS. CHANDLER
Relations Between the Two Notorious
ly Scandalous.
Omaha , March 115. The refusal of
the war department to accept the res
ignation of Captain Klrkman , Impli
cated In the recent 'suicide In Omaha
of Mrs. Bessie Chandler , the wife of
a follow officer , promises to bring out
fuller facts bearing on the unfortun
ate affair which have thus far been
covered up. Captain Kirkman Is now
under trial by court-martial , the hear
ing having been interrupted to await
evidence from the Philippines. Some
of the testimony already given Is
gradually coming out from Valentine
and Fort Nlobrara , where the court-
martial sat. The condition of affairs
revealed became notorious last Aug
ust , while Lieutenant Chandler was
In Fort Rlley , Kan. , nt the maneuv
ers. Witnesses testified that In his
absence Captain Klrkman and Mrs.
Chandler were together a great many
times under circumstances BO flag
rantly Improper that tno army offi
cers finally dismissed the woman from
the fort.
Captain Kirkman secured a leave
of absence , folowed ] her to Omaha
and there secured another extension
of time. They went to New York to
gether and registered at the Fifth
Avenue hotel as Mr. and Mrs. Chand
ler. There Klrkman overstayed his
leave thirty days , was placed In n
hospital for treatmnet for excessive
alcoholic drinking , nnd It was there
that Lieutenant Chandler discovered
hln wife. After an Interview In her [
room at the hotel ho'Kent her to her
home In Itiiltlmore and returned to
Valentine , where ho started divorce
proceedings. !
Klrkmnn came hack in arrest H ,
though not in custody , after hnvliu'
been examined under authority of the
war department nt Fort .lay , llrook-
lyn. It was thought ho might he In
sane , hut the commission rel'irned
papers showing him to be In bio right
mind. When ho reached Fort Nio-
brara , January 7 , In arrest ho was ill-
vested of IIH | command and his sword
taken from him.
Ills plea has been Insanity. Ho WIIH
allowed bin freedom to gather such
testimony UH ho may In hlH defense.
The reason the couit-martlal did not
deeldo on his cane wan that lu > want
ed depositions from two phy.tlH.'imi tu
Iho Philippines , one of them , Dr.
SchocUu , who treated him several
yoiitB ago for oxcussdvo use of I'lpor. '
Those depositions probublv will he on

Klrkman's relations with Mrs.
Clmmllor are not the only charges
against his conduct as an olllcor. It

KINKAID IS NOT DISCOURAGED.
Finds Cause for Gladness In the De
feat of the Proposed Amendments.
Omaha , March M. Congressman
M. I' . Klukald of the Sixth Nebraska
district whileIn Omaha on Sunday
nald In reference to the proposed
atiicudtimotH to the Klnkald fMO-ncro
bill passed at the session of congress
two years ago :
"Nouo of the amendments were car
ried and 1 am rather glud of It. I
tried hard to get the homesteaders
on these lands an extension of time
In make their Improvement nnd also
to permit them to take up vacant
lands cornering on their homesteads
to make out the whole CIO acres ,
where it was impossible to get. lauds
Immediately joining their lands , hut
this amendment was knocked out
also. However , the original bill as
passed two years ago remains Intact
and matters will come out all right
yet.
"It does not seem to he the policy
of the Interior department to encour
age the acquisition of 010-aero tracts
and probably It Is best to leave well
enough alone. Neither the Colorado
or Montana law , modeled after the
Klnkald law , succeeded In passing ,
so Nebraska in doing very well as it
Is.
"Regarding the illegal fencing of
the public lauds , there Is one thing
very certain , and that Is that the cattlemen -
tlemon will be perfectly safe In tak
ing their fences down. The depart
inent of the Interior Is determined
that these fences shall come down
wherever they are Illegally placed and
the department of justice Is Insisting
upon the enforcing of the law to the
letter , instructions to this effect luu-
Ing been given Judge Baxter during
bis recent visit to Washington. "
"In regard to the report of Com
missioner fiarfleld on the beef trust
matter , the subject has not reoehod
as much attnteion at Washington as
here in the west. This can be ac
counted for from the fact , that we are
pretty busy during the closing days
of congress ami with Inauguration
matters , so not much was said about
his report. I see the papers are ven
tilating the report with considerable
vigor. I have not had the time to
give the subject any attention , and am
not prepared to express an opinion
at this time.
"I am merely on my % yny home now
by easy stages. The session of con
gress just closed was a very busy
one and wo are all glad to get back
for a rest. "
"Lucia dl Lammermoor. "
Have you stopped to think that we
have the opportunity we who are
living In what is still thought to be
the American desert of having the
greatest of song operas by the su-
premest artists of the song world Caruso
ruse and Sembrich ?
Ten years ago Caruso was a me
chanic In Naples today he Is the
greatest tenor the world has ever
known. Ills masterpiece of song is
"Lucia , " and in It his gracious , tender
notes tug at one's heart-strings In the
ravishing tragedy of that opera. The
role of "Lucia" also offers the finest
opportunity for the-display of the ex
ceptional abilities of Sembrich so
well known In all America , and never
since the opera was produced have
two such artists as Caruso and Sern
brlch sung the principal roles. When
they appear in the "sextette" and in
the famous "mad scene" the enthusi
asm Is absolutely indescribable. They
have reached the limit of the human
voice In the expression of pathos ,
tragedy , passion , and tender love.
This opera will be given by the
Conrled Metropolitan Opera company
of Now York city with Caruso and
Sembrich In the tltlo roles , on the
evening of Thursday , March 30 , at
the Auditorium , Omaha.
Apply for tickets In person , or by
mall or wire , to Clement Chase , 1518

Asparagus. |
Asparagus is so easily grown and ,
such n large quantity Is produced on
a small amount of ground that every '
garden should contain a bed. A bed j
10 foot square requiring 50 plants will 1
give an abundant supply for any ordl- '

best time to plant. We have the larg
est and best flavored variety.
Delicious Strawberries.
Most everybody likes strawberries
and they are the most easily grown of
any kind of fruit as well as the most
healthful and delicious nnd they bear
a full crop of fruit the next year after
planting. From 300 to 500 plants make
a good sized bed planted 1 foot by '
three feet. Wo have the biggest self-1
fertilizing kinds.
Sweet Prune Plum.
September 1 , 1903 , three bushels of
plums wore picked from ono five-year-
old tree In H. D. Hammond's orchard
of Sweet Prune plums. The tree com
menced to bear two years after plantIng -
Ing nnd Is bearing every year. It Is
the only Pnmo plum that has been a
success with mo and I have tried
many kinds. It stood the dry years ,
1893 and 1894 , and the hard winter of
1899 and bore fruit the following sea
son. It la a grand success for North
eastern Nebraska. It Is a dark purple
In color , large size , skin can he eas''y
removed and can bo pitted like a
free stone peach. They are excellent
for canning and preserves and nro so
sweet that they require very little
sugar. I sold this plum at $2.50 to
$ I.00 ! a bushel the past season when
other varieties of sour plums were
selling for 75 cents to $1.00 a bushel.
It has takeij first premium nt several
fairs , a premium at the Lincoln state
fair , , and limbs and branches loaded
with plums , shipped to the Pan-Amer
ican exposition at Buffalo , New York ,
were shown In the Nebrasak fruit ex
hibit that took one of the gold medals.
I also received an honorable mention
diploma on this plum from" the Pan-
American exposition. Wo believe this
plum has more good qualities , and Is
the host plum In existence for this
whole northwestern country. If you
plant some of those trees you will be
well paid.
Wo have n choice fine lot of five to
six feet trees to sell for the spring
of 1905. These trees were grown from
grafts cut off these bearing trees that
bore these plums , and they will bear
fruit at two or throe years old If
planted and nro sure to bo genuine.
If you want some of these trees send
your order early and got the best plum
In existence. Trees five to six foot
$1.25 each ; $12.00 per dozen.
$6 trees for $6.00. The only way you
can be sure of getting this plum true
to name grafted from my bearing trees
Is to send your order direct to me.
